DORA'S POV
------
I just sat in my room as I blasted Joe boy tunes since today was Saturday and all the teachers were nice enough not to kill us with homework. I still haven't showered because my body was doing me lazy, that's when my room door flings open and out stood my mother looking at me in anger.
Ahh Dora, you are soya
Number one, I was playing music I know she dislikes because she always gave sermon on how those musicians were bad influence on children. Number two, I was busy lying on my bed with my night wear as if I had a maid that I had employed to do all my chores, and number three, it was already eleven.
Nigerian female children can relate to how Saturdays used to be at home.
"Dorathy Nwabueze Chineye!!!!!" She yelled and I just used style to off the music that was blasting.
"Goodmorning Mom" I said underneath my breathe, trying not to make eye contact with her because if I by mistake look her.... I could be six feet under.
"Better don't greet me before I give you a hot slap that will send you to your early grave" Her voice still very laced with anger.
I wanted to respond but she wasn't finished, " Before I open my eyes, I want the whole house to be swept and mopped, and that kitchen should better be sparkling"
That one sef possible
I just sat there watching her as she shut her eyes, was this woman actually serious. I haven't even showered and I'm not ready for work naa.
"Dora you're still here?!!"
Ahhh, She has opened her eyes oohh.
I quickly raced out of the room and dodged the shoe she had already thrown at me. Oohhh God, see how the house is dusty and the sink is filled with plate. I decided to go to Chisoms room and ask her to assist me.
I gently opened her door to meet her watching something on her phone and she was laughing hard. " Can I see?"
"No" Turning her phone off, "How can I help you?... Sorry that came out wrong..... I meant, what the hell do you want?"
This girl need real talk ohh, ahbi I resemble her mate?
"Look Chisom, because I never change am for see you no mean say I no dey carry eye dey watch you oh. Better be careful and mind how you how talk to me because the next time I vex for you... Na slap I go land for your face"
She scoffed and stood up, walking closer to me. " Not that I understood all what you just said, but I'll save you the explanation. So can we skip to the part you leave my room"
This pikin need God.
"Abeg I came to ask if you'll help me sweep the house while I attend to the kitchen" Ignoring her initial comment.
She chuckled in an evil way, "Alright"
Wait, did she just agree??
This is a miracle, I even thought I'll have to drag her like I initially planned.
"Okay then" Smiling before I left her room and guess what, immediately I stepped out, she locked the door behind.
"Chisom!" I yelled while banging on the door, "If I catch you!"
"Sorry Dora, I figured if I agree you'll leave my room. Maybe you can ask your monkey boots to help, after all, Dora the explorer gets every situation handled" She said and I wanted to break that door and goan kill that spoilt brat.
After I had stamped my feet a couple of time due to how the morning turned out so annoying, I went to the kitchen and started washing the plates. When that was done, I swept and mopped the house as ordered, meeting my mom sipping a cold glass of orange juice in the sitting room, watching her favorite tv channel. African Magic Showcase.
"I'm done" I mumbled, cleaning the sweat from my forehead. One day this woman will send me on an errand in hell and be relaxing to watch film, mtcheww.
"You're done, are you now food that you're done. Dora I've warned you to start speaking English like somebody that will enter university. Done ko done ni"
"Sorry I've finished" Rolling my eyes when she wasn't looking. If she catch me ehh The rest nah story.
She was about to say something else when someone started knocking on our door. "Dora get the door" She commanded
I did as I was told opening the door to see Kemi and Femi. "Girls" Quite shocked at how early they arrived. Sleep overs are meant to be at night.
"Aren't you happy to see us, be standing there like frozen chicken" Kemi said, pushing me and coming in.
The twins are used to my house. Ever since I can remember, they used to show up at my house anytime and my mom took note of them as my friends.
"Good day Ma" They both greeted my mother. She turned to them and a broad smile appeared on her face as if she was laughing and jubilating before they came.
"Ah Bayo twins, what a surprise. You're here for the sleep over?" And yes, my mom is aware of the sleep overs we had because it was like a routine.
"Yes Ma, that's why were here" Femi the responsible twin answered.
"Okay, Amanda nko?"
"That one has issues" Kemi immediately answered, my mother looked at her confused before I said, "She's just sick"
"Oh Okay. Dora why don't you enter the kitchen and cook something for your friends, or do you expect me to do that?"
Why is this woman like this?
I just left the kitchen and she is fully aware that I've not bathed.
"Okay" I answered with a hint of frustration on my voice.
"We'll help out" Kemi suggested and they both followed me to the kitchen. When we were in the kitchen, Kemi just balanced on the kitchen stool, pressing phone while Femi helped me out.
"Kemi you need to change oh" I said stirring the sauce and giving Femi to taste.
"Ah nah, Femi isn't enough help or what"
"See her mouth like Femi isn't enough help" Femi mimicked and I laughed. We were making jellof rice since I was an expert in it.
"Ehhen who has heard that Seyi is back" Femi started and we all balanced to wait for the thing to boil.
"I saw it on Mayo's page oh, chai I miss that girl and her wahala" I laughed.
Seyi was once in Rosevelts high before she left for abroad. She was a nice girl that everyone adored. I most admit that when I saw her picture I almost didn't recognize her. She had gotten finer and had lost a lot of weight unlike before.
"Me I don't miss her oh" Kemi said, "Where is Ebu sef, I thought you said she lived here"
"Yeah she those, she went over to Mayo's place"
"I envy them oh. See love na"
"Why don't you ask Kemi about the JJ she wanted to break her head for" Femi said while laughing and earning glares from Kemi.
"Mtcheww, it's funny naa. Kii se ebi re" (It is not your fault)
I laughed so hard I almost cried. It's very rare when you get the chance to laugh at Kemi, it's always her laughing at you and I had to use the moment till it's up.
"So howfa JJ"
"Wo Dora, don't bring that goat here oh, Mayo did not even punch him well.... Because if I would have handled his nonsense, all of us will be mourning him in the grave"
Femi busted into laugher which annoyed Kemi the more "Kini asise ninu okan yii" (What is wrong with this one)
"Is something burning in the kitchen!!!!!" Mom shouted from where she was and we suddenly realized the rice was almost burnt.
"Now you see what JJ talk has caused" Kemi said
----------
The girls where already gathered in my room and it was almost time for girls night. I really can't explain how, but the twins got into serious talk with Chisom about Disney princesses.
"I think I love the lives of those princess, they don't have to be woken up with cane and cold water in the morning" I chipped in and Chisom turned to face me.
"Don't get me started" I knew from that moment that I shouldn't have talked, that's when she started.
"There lives are micromanaged by kings, queens, princes and even witches they've never met before. Their told to do this!, Do that, Bite the apple, prick your finger, fall asleep, wake up, let down your hair.... aren't they really tired of being bossed around. Sleeping for a hundred years??, who does that!?"
Remind me again how God allowed such person to enter earth?
"My girl.... You have sense" Kemi said, giving Chisom a high five.
After a while of talking and mostly eating... It was finally six and the girls had showered and were now wearing their pajamas. Chisom left my room saying she had episodes of grownish to catch on and i was happy she left because I'm not planning to play games like truth or dare with her invovled.
"Dora who get all these fancy hair gel, soap and even see this shampoo" Kemi said in the toilet as she looked at all Ebu's things.
It's even past six... and she's not back.
I hope she's not planning on staying with Mayo because I didn't train her that way oh.
As if God knew I was beginning to worry, Ebu barged into the room looking all stressed out. She forced a small smile at Femi who was in the room.
"Babe your back, how was it" I needed to hear current gist.
"Can you please enlighten me a little about a girl named Seyi??" Cocking her brows at me.
Ohhhww, naw I understand say serious gbese don land.
Did I mention Mayo and Seyi were best friends. Well, maybe it's time I tell Ebu details.
So I decided to update to say a big thankyou for the 3.1k reads!!!!!!!!
Were getting somewhere people.
Hope you enjoyed this chapter.
Till later darlings.
